If you have a modern smart phone you may have noticed that it comes with built in wireless charging capability called ‘Qi charging.’ Qi is a trademark name for a thin and smart inductive charging system. Many large gadget companies have standardized on Qi, which means it’s easy to find a charging dish and we thought it might be cool if your electronics project or phone with a microUSB port can recharge itself wirelessly. Thus, we now have four different MicroUSB Modules for different phone/device orientations.
Check out each individual product page – the photo of the microUSB connector will help you determine which module you need!
We have a generic photo showing how the module sticks to the back of our Android phone, but you’ll have to check the MicroUSB connector orientation to determine which length/type of Qi module you need.
Make a robot friend with Adafruit’s CRICKIT – A Creative Robotics & Interactive Construction Kit. It’s an add-on to our popular Circuit Playground Express, FEATHER and other platforms to make and program robots with CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. Start controlling motors, servos, solenoids. You also get signal pins, capacitive touch sensors, a NeoPixel driver and amplified speaker output. It complements & extends your boards so you can still use all the goodies on the microcontroller, now you have a robotics playground as well.
